Chapter 981: The Pathetic Qiang Clan

Unlike in Wuwei City, Zhao Yun's joy is different.

Outside the city, in the Qiang camp, there was a gloomy cloud. Offense, offense. The Qiang people are good at attacking, brave and good at fighting. During the day, they also took great risks and rode their horses to shoot at the Chu army in the city.

But after all, they are also human beings, and they also have fears and fears. They will also be hesitant in the face of Zhao Yun. Especially when your own army has suffered heavy casualties.

Fear began to gain the upper hand.

At this moment, the Qiang Chinese army is in the big tent.

Tu Xiong, Han Sui, and the main Qiang generals were all seated.

Of course, the key figures such as Tuxiong and Han Sui were unscathed, but the Qiang generals in the big tent lost a lot, making the camp a lot empty.

"Patriarch, the casualties have been calculated. Of these, 21,500 are missing and 30,000 are injured. A Qiang general reported with a blue face.

"What?"

The huge number of casualties made all the Qiang people, including Tuxiong, look pale. Although I could see the tragedy of the battle of the day, the mountains of corpses, the smell of blood, and the full wails.

In particular, some familiar generals also fell on the battlefield.

This made the Qiang generals have a certain acceptance in their hearts, and this time, they really ran into hard stubble and planted a heel.

But even so, they never thought that the casualties would be so large. Twenty-one thousand five hundred people were missing, and those who were missing did not return to the camp, that is, they died in battle. 30,000 people were injured.

Although only a tenth of the dead were killed, 30,000 wounded soldiers were also a big problem. The wounded soldiers wail all day long, which is extremely demoralizing.

The situation is much more sinister than imagined, too much.

When the army entered the Central Plains, he was very ambitious, how could he have thought that he would not be able to conquer even a Han city?

The Qiang generals, including Tuxiong, found it really difficult to accept this casualty.

"No way, did you miscalculate? More than 50,000 casualties a day? ”

A Qiang general was very unwilling and asked.

"yes. There were so many casualties, which means that our 200,000-strong army went to two or three percent at once. How is this possible. Another Qiang general also questioned.

Some of the other generals also brightened their eyes, and they pinned their hopes on this Qiang general who was in charge of statistics, expecting that he had miscalculated.

Their casualties simply could not have been so large.

In the end, almost all the generals in the big tent spoke. Even Tu Qihang Update Group Ghost Provision Copy Shameless Xiong looked at this Qiang general coldly, if he really found out that he was lying about the military situation, I am afraid that Tu Xiong would immediately kill him.

Only Han Sui's face did not move, and he watched coldly.

I sneered in my heart, these guys are a bunch of megalomaniacs, super huge megalomaniacs. At the time of the army, 200,000 iron cavalry was enough to break through the Han land and establish the empire of the Qiang people.

In fact, it is also common sense, in today's world, the Han family is weakened, and the famous Xiongnu have been in the middle of their breath, although the Xianbei people have risen in the grassland, but their power is far less than that of the Huns back then.

In this west, the Qiang are powerful representatives. Powerful tribes, 200,000 iron horsemen. All kinds of favorable factors have inflated the self-confidence of the Qiang people.

But when he went south, after encountering setbacks, he was unwilling to accept it and put the blame on the Qiang general who was in charge of statistics. The elm head didn't want to think about it, the casualties of the army can be used to make mistakes, is it okay to joke?

No general would make such a mistake. There were fifty or sixty thousand casualties, that is, fifty or sixty thousand. There will be no deductions.

At this moment, in addition to being cold, Han Sui actually felt a huge pleasure. Let you take the opportunity to blackmail and occupy Xiliang that belongs to me.

Han Sui's heart thought happily.

And the questioned Qiang general was already sweating at the moment.

"The last general, how dare the last general joke about such a thing. If the patriarch and the generals don't believe it, they can send another general to count. The Qiang general hurriedly argued.

Just like Han Sui thought, no general would joke about this kind of thing. This Qiang general naturally didn't dare.

But Tu Xiong, as well as some of the generals in the Great Tent, still didn't believe it.

"Cheng Xuan, you go and take charge of the statistics." Tu Xiong first glanced at the Qiang general coldly, then raised his head, and among the many generals, he found a horse-faced general and ordered.

"No." The horse-faced general named Cheng Wei said yes and immediately walked out.

After Tu Xiong gave the order, the generals in the big tent all breathed a sigh of relief, and then glared viciously at the previous Qiang general who was in charge of statistics.

This guy must be wrong.

In this atmosphere, time slowly slips away. At this moment, it was almost midnight, and the generals had not even eaten, but none of them said that they were hungry.

In this situation, where can we eat.

It wasn't until midnight that Cheng Wei returned to the tent. When Cheng Wei returned to the big tent, the generals showed a look of joy and decided that Cheng Wei would bring good news.

And the previous Qiang general, who was in charge of statistics, was also relieved. He knew that he was not miscalculated, but that these generals really couldn't accept it.

Now that Cheng Wei has also finished counting, as long as the number is correct with him, he can be returned to his innocence.

And the much-anticipated Cheng Xuan's face was also very abnormal, and the hearts of Tuxiong and the others suddenly sank.

"Patriarch, there is nothing wrong with the statistics, it is indeed fifty or sixty thousand casualties." Cheng Wei came to the front of Tuxiong and saluted.

"What? It's true? Our 200,000 troops suffered two or three percent casualties at once? ”

"In one day."

Suddenly, the big tent was like a vegetable market, and countless generals couldn't accept this result, and they all exclaimed.

Tuxiong's face turned even bluer, and his last expectation was erased. It's not the mistake of the general who counted the casualties, but the real casualties.

Fifty or sixty thousand casualties.

No matter which general it is, the princes will set sail when they hear this number, and the ghosts of the update group will provide a copy shameless and feel dizzy. Especially the Qiang, a powerful but underpopulated race.

"Patriarch, now that we need to make a comeback for the next city, what should we do next?" A general said in fear.

"That's right, the Han people have so many cities and so many princes, if they fight one by one, I'm afraid."

"Our army is gone, but we can't help the Han people."

"Shut up."

The generals were frightened, and their ambitions were immediately exposed, and there was a Han Sui next to them at this moment. Tuxiong's face turned pale, and he snorted coldly and said.

With Tuxiong's cold drink, the generals suddenly closed their mouths one by one.

After the generals closed their mouths, the inside of the tent finally fell silent. Tuxiong began to ponder what to do next.

This time, there were 50,000 or 60,000 casualties, and the 20,000 or 30,000 dead soldiers could not come back, and the more than 30,000 wounded soldiers also needed a period of rest and recuperation. Therefore, it is basically impossible to continue south.

Moreover, there is no benefit to going south. As some generals said, the next Wuwei will have such a large number of casualties, let alone so many Han cities.

According to intelligence, the Han people's central army is currently building a defense in the Jincheng area. If you want to continue to the south and rule the Central Plains, you must go down to Jincheng.

When the time comes, it will be another bloody battle, even if it is won, how many of the 200,000 iron horsemen will remain? As for the matter of continuing to go south, Tuxiong has begun to feel weak.

So what's next?

Of course, it occupies the three counties of Xiliang, and it is coming slowly. If you don't have the strength, you will build a foundation, occupy the three counties, and prepare for the future man-made houses.

In addition to recognizing the reality clearly, Tu Xiong also has a reason to fight Zhao Yun to the death under Wuwei City to avenge today's revenge.

It is not empty talk to say that the Qiang people have a tendon, and at this moment, Tu Xiong is full of desire to seek revenge on Zhao Yun.

"Rest for three days, and then attack Wuwei again." Tuxiong ordered.

"No." The Qiang generals were not surprised by this order, and they also felt that it was very hanging to go south, on the contrary, it would be much easier to capture Wuwei.

Soon, the generals all left.

Han Sui also left, and his heart was already hopeless that this group of Qiang people would continue to go south, and only hoped that he could defeat Zhao Yun to relieve the pressure on Ma Teng and Cao Cao in the south.

Create an opportunity for him to recover Liangzhou.

…………………

The situation in the north is that Zhao Yun, the general of the town of Chu, is powerful and guarding the country. The situation in the south, on the other hand, is much more complicated.

Kou Feng's army of more than 100,000 fought with Ma Chao outside the city of Yixian and killed tens of thousands of cavalry. It fell silent, and did not set up a position to attack Xianyang, nor did it attack Chang'an to the east.

Only the food needed by the army of more than 100,000 was empty.

And Ma Teng, Cao Hong and others also shrank after the last blow. More than 100,000 horse infantry troops were all stationed inside and outside Xianyang City.

A situation of confrontation was formed between the two sides.

However, there will be a time for change, and it is impossible to confront each other for the rest of your life. A torrent flowed out of Tongguan and headed for Xianyang.

This torrent was composed of all the cavalry, each with one man and three horses, all in leather armor, a sword at the waist, a longbow and arrows on their backs.

The cavalrymen were strong in physique and skilled in horsemanship.

You don't need to look, you just feel the powerful aura that this cavalry exudes when it passes by. It is certain that this is an elite cavalry.

In the north, only the tiger and leopard rider can be so elite. 50,000 tigers and leopards rode out of the customs and finally came to Yongliang, ready to fight to the death with the elite army of Chu State.

Xianyang, in the hall of the Qinhou Mansion.

Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Pang De, Zhong Xuan, Cao Hong, Yan Xing and others sat in columns, and everyone's faces showed relaxed and happy looks.

"The tiger and leopard rode eastward, and our chances of victory for the Chu army are much greater." Cao Hong said with a smile. Just now, he received the news of the tiger and leopard riding, and immediately notified Ma Teng to hold this meeting.

"It's not just the tiger and leopard cavalry, just now I also received news that it was 200,000 Qiang cavalry going south. It's almost there. Ma Teng also smiled and said the good news
